McUstick will feature a 24-hour gas station, coffee kiosk, and other auto-centric services, sparking debate over whether such businesses fit the city’s vision — but developers argue they’re strategically placed to serve drivers funneled through this major new freeway extension. Durango will bring 127 homes and six office buildings for tech and professional services. Both projects now head to City Council for final approval next month, signaling just the start of major transformation along the Idaho 16 corridor.
